Hi Dave,
I appreciate the comments re the Modwright mod and happy to hear you are so pleased with Dan's work.
Based on what Ive read about the mod itself, it too can take up to about 200 hrs to fully break in and sound to its full peak potential. I would very much appreciate, if you remember and feel comfortable, posting a few quick observations after you log some time in, maybe a few weeks of run in. I get my unit next week(the c/s guys at Oppo are great btw) and would like some time with it stock to really evaluate what it does in my own setting before contemplating changes from something unheard. Which by then, probably gives you enough time with your modded unit to get a better feel for what the changes do from what you remember as stock.
My guess is a lot of folks here on AA wouldn't mind reading such a comparison as well, from an active member.
Regards,
Bill

Be glad to do what i can. I had an audiobuddy over this afternoon to hear it in early break-in form (not quite 2 days). He left very impressed.
Thanks! for sharing Dave.
keep us posted as your modded player breaks-in.
My modded 105 continues to bloom and impress after maybe 50-75 hours. A new rectifier tube is due today and last night I pulled the plug on a pair of NOS 1958 Sylvania 6SN7 tubes to replace the stock Electro Harmonix pair. I'm may be overkilling this, but the 105 is certainly worth the effort, at least iMHO.
More to come.
Thanks! for the update Dave. You should really notice a substantial difference (better) after 200 hrs. Keep us posted!
